Pietile Carousel

React carousel based on Framer Motion without repaints and simple in use.

Features

• Doesn't require to specify items dimensions (pure css solution)
• Relies on translates for movements (zero paints)
• Arbitrary number of visible items
• Сyclicality

Installation

Using yarn

yarn add pietile-carousel

or using npm

npm install -S pietile-carousel

Pietile Carousel depends on Framer Motion which is a peer dependency so be sure that it's installed in you project (if not then install it using yarn add framer-motion or npm install -S framer-motion)

Usage

Every item is wrapped in container where it can layout it's content. The size of container depends on the size of carousel and amount of visible items. You can use any styling system you want to set styles. Get ref and use moveLeft/moveRight/moveTo methods for scroll.

Example

import React from 'react';

import { PietileCarousel } from 'pietile-carousel';

function App() {
  const carouselStyle = {
    width: 150,
    height: 100,
  };

  const itemStyle = {
    width: '100%',
    height: '100%',
  };

  return (
    <PietileCarousel style={carouselStyle}>
      <div style={{ ...itemStyle, backgroundColor: 'red' }} />
      <div style={{ ...itemStyle, backgroundColor: 'orange' }} />
      <div style={{ ...itemStyle, backgroundColor: 'yellow' }} />
    </PietileCarousel>

Note

Carousel protects nesting links (a-tag's) from undesirable behavior (link click is being processed when the user starts dragging and release the mouse outside of the carousel) by calling preventDefault for the correspondent click event. If you are handling clicks manually you can check defaultPrevented when processing your event.
